Ooh some nice interesting flashbacks.
So Isshin was 10th division captain and Hitsugaya is currently lower ranked than Rangikuu.
Nice to see Aizen again, even if it was only a flashback

I wonder if Isshin is really his dad. Ichigo looks too much like Kaien than Isshin. I wonder if Isshin and Kaien was brothers, cousins, or uncle/nephew.

Wow Isshin was the former 10th squad captain. Interesting to see Aizen again and hopefully we will understand more of his hollification experiments and see why he did it. Good chapter overall.

Ichigo is the product of Aizen's manipulation.
Isshin Shiba met Masaki Kurosaki because of Aizen.
Aizen wants a perfect hybrid of all Bleach beings...Shinigami + Hollow + Quincy + Human.
It all happened to Ichigo because of Aizen's genius.

So many familiar faces, I love this chapter. Also the relationship of Rangiku, Toushiro and Isshin nnggnghh.. I most say I'm surprised. Finally a clear statement that Isshin is a Shiba, wonderful. When did all this take place? I'm guessing 20 years before Bleach beginning or something?

When Ichigo was shot up to the royal palace with the cannon in chapter 518, Kukaku Shiba (Kaien's sister) says to Ganju (Kaien's brother) that uncle would be sad. So Isshin is probably their uncle since he would be sad that his son Ichigo was leaving.

Oh god, Isshin being the previous Captain of the 10th division has been a theory of mine for years! So nice to see your speculations becoming right from time to time xDD
But him being a Shiba is a great way to explain Ichigo's weird resemblance with Kaien, I always assumed Tite would just write it off as a coincidence :'D Thank god, he's decided to close some plot holes.
But I wonder in which way this will relate to the current plot! After 500 chapters we'll finally know the secret to Ichigo's toally mysterious birth. This seems to be kind of a trend though, writing the origins of the main character so late into the story.
But at least now this arc is becoming more interesting to me personally, cuz I love Bleach flashbacks for some reason :D

I highly doubt that Juha Bach is Ichigo's father. If anything, id say that Juha Bach was the father of Ichigo's mother. How could you doubt Isshin being Ichigo's father? For starters, Isshin and Ichigo both share the Getsuga Tenshou, and correct me if im wrong but im pretty sure that it was mentioned somewhere that Getsuga Tenshou was a family technique, passed down in genes.
Also, i doubt that the young mother of Ichigo would do "that" with a thousand year old man such as Juha. xD

because Juha Bach can absorb abilities like Bankai so its not impossible for Ichigo to unconsciously absorb the bankai of Isshin, and btw the first few chapters of Bleach also mentions that Ichigo absorbs the shinigami powers of Rukia so it was hinted long ago that Ichigo is a Quincy

i guess you people need more confirmation that Ichigo is a Quincy, i guess the WHOLE chapter 514 of Bleach is not yet enough confirmation, try reading MangaStream version of that chapter too since its more clearer, but ye if you still cannot believe it then hopefully in a few more chapters it will be revealed again with more concrete evidences

So.. Ichigo's dad Isshin is a shinigami and was the 10th Division Captain.. and he is a Shiba.. and Ichigo's mom was a Quincy... Ok

Why do I get the feeling that Aizen is somewhat responsible for Ichigo's mother's death? (I forgot her name.. Misaki was it?)

Surely toshiro would notice ichigo is related to isshin since both of them can use getsuga tenshou, why did he say anything in previous meetings with ichigo?

If ichigo is really the son of a quincy, would karin and yuzu also have quincy powers????

Yea maybe they would gain quincy powers some time in the future but they are really unimportant characters so it doesn't really matter.

ichigo already did that once, no one gave him an asauchi when he first became a soul reaper in the start of the series and when he regained his power from uruhara's shattered shaft training, he probably made it from his own soul

"All according to plan." I wonder what is not in his plan---- Oh god, could I be one of his plans too? Or maybe the Global Warming? And please don't say Aizen had planned for Justin Beiber to destroy the music as well.

Jokes aside, a good chapter after somewhat disappointing chapters. Also, Masaki is a Quincy, right? And Isshin is a Shinigami. From what we've been told, Shinigami (or Souls for that matter) cannot reproduce, right? So, is Ichigo, Karin and Yuzu Isshin's children? If so, how? DoesWill Kubo even remember thatexplain it to us? Also, since Masaki is a Quincy, could it be that Ryuuken is, perhaps, a cousin of hers? Why else would a Shinigami be best of buds with a Quincy? Supposing it's because they're both doctors, it's still too big of a coincidence.

It'll be interesting to see how he gets his sword back, especially being a Shinigami already, whenever he got it in the past was always when becoming a Shinigami. Well, I guess this time he'll be turning into a Quincygami.

same here actually. Sometimes i wish this was a monthly to have more pages per chapter.

I guess the hollow that injured isshin was Aizen's experiment. Those do have a reputation for being troublesome.

I still thought the flash back was a ways off though. Bleach really will end too fast at this rate

Soul reapers can definitely reproduce to make new souls. Plenty of characters in SS belong to a clan or have siblings and parents that are shown/mentioned. Also those are most likely all Isshin's kids. Ichigo seems to have inherited Isshin's zanpakuto powers and bares a strong resemblance to Isshin's nephew Kaien Shiba(former squad 13 vice cap.)

Juha Bach can only absorb bankais with the help of those medallions. Its not a basic quincy power, just a device he made. And it makes much more sense for Isshin to be the Biological father than Juha. If Juhabach was his real father then that would mean he's 100% quincy and his birth really wouldn't be that special like everyone is hinting at.
